Feiyang took Ziyi, and after many twists and turns, finally found out the whereabouts of Xiaoyu and the others.
It was a small town. There were not many houses in the town, scattered here and there. There were few people on the streets, and it looked a bit depressed. But it was a good place to rest, with clear air and bright sky.
It's very clear, and there are often birds flying by. There are large tracts of bamboo forest here, which are lush and green.
Ziyi said worriedly to Feiyang: "Uncle Li can't do anything else except fishing. How do you think they can live here?"
"Don't worry, since we are here, we must help them, right?"
"Um."
They found a small hotel and stayed. Feiyang was always worried about Ziyi's health because she had just recovered. Ziyi smiled and said it didn't matter, but there was a sadness in her eyes that would never fade away.
.
Then they started looking for where Xiaoyu and the others lived. Since there was no exact address, it was a little difficult to find. Feiyang never asked Ziyi what happened, and Ziyi didn't want to single it out for fear of explaining.
Feeling sad, the two of us went out together every day, asking others if there were any residents who had just moved here. They seemed to have left everything behind in that city.
Du Yifang watched from the side as Chu Shitian was so busy looking for his daughter, and sneered in her heart. She knew Ziyi was there, because when Feiyang picked Ziyi up from the hospital that day, she happened to be passing by, and then she sent someone
Follow them. But she just didn't tell her. She wanted to make him anxious and sad, so that she would feel at ease.
Leng Zhongxian called Leng Xing early in the morning and asked the two brothers to come back quickly. Leng Chen was still uneasy about what happened with Shishi last night. Shishi left early in the morning without saying hello and called again and again.
It didn't make sense. So he had to go back with Leng Xing and be scolded by his father. After they both went back, Leng Zhongxian pointed at the newspaper and yelled at the two brothers, asking them to come up with a solution, but the two brothers remained silent.
Finally, Leng Xing raised his head and said, "Dad, don't worry, I will take care of things."
Leng Zhongxian said breathlessly: "I hope you can solve this problem as soon as possible."
On the other side, Yuki is very conflicted. If this news really breaks out, she may not be able to survive in the entertainment industry. But, daughter, that is a piece of meat that has fallen from her body.
Hezi looked at Ziyi's photo coldly, hatred rising from the bottom of her heart little by little. Her fingers clenched hard, and the photo was crumpled into a ball. Then she stood up and said to a man in black: "
I want her to know how powerful I am."
"Yes, miss!" the man said respectfully.
It's the seventh day.
Ziyi and the others still couldn't find Xiaoyu and the others. She frowned and asked Feiyang: "Where do you think they will move to? Xiaoyu and Xiaoyu still have to go to school."
Feiyang's eyes lit up: "Go to school? Come on, follow me." He pulled her and ran away. Ziyi asked dully, "What are you doing?"
Feiyang turned back and looked at her: "Since both brothers and sisters have to go to school, of course they are in school. When you find the school, you will find them, don't you think so?"
"Yeah!" Zi Yi nodded repeatedly.
There were only two primary schools in the town, so they quickly found Xiao Yu. When they saw Xiao Yu, she was surrounded by a group of boys and girls. One of the girls said loudly: "Huh, you poor devils, you are actually like this."
Want to play with us?"
Xiao Yu stood in the middle, clenching her fists and looking at those people stubbornly.
"Hurry up and apologize!" A boy pushed Xiao Yu, but she couldn't stand and fell to the ground. Xiaoyu ran over and yelled at them: "Don't bully my sister!"
The boy looked at him askance. He was much stronger than Xiaoyu. He pushed Xiaoyu and staggered his steps. Xiaoyu got angry, grabbed the boy and started beating him. The boy was caught unprepared.
The beating made his nose bleed. Seeing this, everyone else ran over to help the boy. As a result, the brother and sister were beaten badly.
Ziyi couldn't stand it any longer, so she rushed up and shouted: "Stop." The roar was really loud. Facing Ziyi who suddenly appeared, the children were stunned for a moment, not to mention she was so beautiful.
a girl.
"What are you doing? Bullying the few with more!" Zi Yi said angrily.
"Why do we need you to take care of our affairs?" The boy felt brave and said.
Feiyang shook his head helplessly and walked out: "It's not okay for you to bully the weak like this."
Xiaoyu glared at him: "We are not weak."
Someone called out: "The teacher is here." With a coax, the children all dispersed. Only Xiaoyu and Xiaoyu were left. Xiaoyu glanced at Ziyi, pulled Xiaoyu and left.
Ziyi stopped them: "Where are you going? Don't you recognize me?"
Xiaoyu didn't even look at him, but took Xiaoyu away.
Ziyi looked up at the teacher and Feiyang who came over. She frowned and wondered what she had done wrong. The teacher looked at the man and woman in front of her and asked doubtfully: "Are you here to find someone?"
Ziyi nodded: "Yes, they are the two children just now."
"Those two children are very troublesome," the teacher said.
"What's wrong?" Ziyi asked anxiously.
"Sigh... The family has no money. Because I joined the class midway, I am very unsociable and can't keep up with my studies. It must be a mental disorder. I called their parents, but they didn't know anything about it. Alas..."
"Oh... don't worry, teacher, I will definitely help them overcome their psychological barriers." Zi Yi said.
Then she took Feiyang to find Xiaoyu and Xiaoyu, but she didn't expect that they ignored her and said they didn't know her. Ziyi was so anxious that she wanted to jump, but their faces were still indifferent, which was completely different.
It's the expression a teenager should have.
After they came out of school dejectedly, they stood at the school gate. She said she would go to their home with them to see Sui in the evening. After school, Xiaoyu and her sister walked out and pretended not to see Ziyi when they saw her.
He walked straight away. Ziyi shouted at them: "Hey, why are you ignoring me?"
Xiaoyu stopped, with a look of hatred in his eyes: "It's best not to let me see you again, otherwise, you will be rude next time." After saying that, he took Xiaoyu and left.
Zi Yi watched them go away in shock, and then she remembered to catch up after a while. She followed them to a courtyard. Feiyang said: "I didn't bring any gifts today. Come back tomorrow."
Ziyi thought for a moment: "Well, that's fine." Then she walked back.
the next day.
Ziyi found the place with the gifts she bought. After knocking on the door, it took a long time for someone to open the door. Aunt Li was stunned when she saw Ziyi and asked, "What are you doing here?"
"Let me see you." Zi Yi said.
"Who are you arguing with?" Uncle Li's voice was loud. When he saw Ziyi, he was obviously stunned.
Ziyi said anxiously: "I really came to see you and see if you are doing well."
Aunt Li snorted: "Whether we are living well or not, what does it have to do with you?"
Uncle Li let Ziyi in and said, "Okay, it's not Ziyi's fault. Let her come in first and sit down for a while. Is this your friend?"
"Well, that's right." Ziyi looked at Feiyang and nodded.
When they got inside, they realized that it was a large courtyard, where many people were sitting and knitting things with bamboo. Ziyi walked into the courtyard door and looked over one by one. Those people were all from the island.
Hearing the noise, they raised their heads and saw Ziyi. They all glared at her. Ziyi handed the gifts in her hands to them and said, "I'm here to see you, don't you welcome me?"
silence.
Zi Yi felt helpless and stretched out her hand. Feiyang laughed and said, "Okay, they are just kidding you, just put the gift down."
"We don't need your hypocrisy." Uncle Liu said coldly.
"Yes, you are not welcome here."
"That's right, get out."
"Are you still here to watch our jokes? Come out quickly." Aunt Zhang got excited and ran up to Ziyi, pushing Ziyi. Others also came up to boo and started scolding her.
Xiaoyu stood there, watching Ziyi being scolded by those people, and finally couldn't help but walked up and pulled everyone away: "Okay, stop making trouble." When those people saw Xiaoyu, they all stopped.
Staring at her.
When they got outside, Feiyang remained silent all the way. Ziyi bit her lip and asked him, "Why don't you speak?"
"What do you want me to say?"
"Please help me analyze their affairs."
Feiyang thought for a while and said: "According to my inference, first, they don't want to see you; second, they are hostile to you; third, you must have done something to make them angry."
"Did I do something to make them angry?" Ziyi tilted her head, thinking hard, and murmured: "How could I have done anything to make them angry?"
Feiyang watched her trying to think about the problem, and his heart skipped a beat. He hit her on the head: "Do you know how the pig died?"
Ziyi looked at him inexplicably: "Why do you say this suddenly?"
"You are so stupid. Let me tell you, you must have promised to help them in the first place, but in the end you frustrated their hopes and now you are causing them to leave their hometown. It would be strange if I don't hate you."
"Ah, then they blame me for not letting them stay on the island? But that's not my fault. I didn't even know that the Leng Group bought it. What should I do now? They live really well here.
It’s not pleasant.”
"Then let them go back to the island."
"The island was planned by Ah Chen to be a resort. A villa was also built. He said it was a birthday gift for me. I didn't care about it. I threw away the drawing."
After hearing her words, Feiyang's eyes darkened for a moment, but Ziyi didn't notice.
"There is another way. You go to Leng Xing, who is the top director of the Leng Group, and buy the island from him." Feiyang said calmly.
Looking for Leng Xing? Ziyi remembered that Leng Xing always seemed to help her when she was in trouble. Should she go to him this time? I don’t know how much it would cost to buy it. Where could she buy it? But, look
Considering Xiaoyu's current life...she thought, maybe she could only find him.
The three parties almost turned the entire city upside down, but they still couldn't find Ziyi. Leng Chen walked around the room, he didn't know how many times he had walked, and he was afraid that he would step through the floor.
"Brother, where do you think she will go?"
"What do you think?" Leng Xing stood in front of the window and asked instead of answering him. In his hand, he was holding the shell that he had finally taken from Hezi. It was already hot, but he But he still held it tightly, fearing that if he let go, he would lose it.
"I'm asking you because I don't know!" Leng Chen said irritably.
"Have you solved that matter?"
"No." Leng Chen lowered his head.
"What did she say?"
"She has been avoiding me these days." Leng Chen said helplessly.
"Don't you have feelings for her?"
"No, definitely not, Zi Yi is the only one in my heart from beginning to end." Leng Chen suddenly raised his head and bumped into Leng Xing's slightly sad eyes. He was startled and lowered his head again.
"You handle this matter yourself, I can't help you." Leng Xing said calmly.
Leng Chen lowered his head and made circles with his fingers in frustration. The large chairman's office suddenly became quiet. Suddenly, Leng Xing's cell phone rang loudly. He picked up the phone and found that it was an unfamiliar number. .He hesitated but pressed answer.
After the call was connected, there was no sound from the other side. A premonition made him hold his breath and asked softly: "Ziyi, is that you?"
Leng Chen exclaimed: "Brother Ziyi, give it to me quickly, let me talk to her." After saying that, he quickly ran to Leng Xing and grabbed the phone, but the call over there was suddenly disconnected. He called again. , it was a cold female voice: "I'm sorry, the user you dialed has turned off his phone."
"Brother, I want to find her! I must find her." Leng Chen said impatiently.
"Where are you going to find her?" Leng Xing sighed in his heart.
"I must find her. I'm going to be suffocated to death!" Leng Chen still said the same thing.
"If she wants to come back, she will come back. Since she called, it proves that she is doing well now. There is no danger." Leng Xing's expression was still indifferent, and his tone was also indifferent. Only careful people , only to realize that his fingers were holding the shell hard.
Ziyi stared blankly at the dropped phone, her heart still pounding. She felt that her throat was dry and hoarse. It seemed difficult to make a sound. She only knew that tears were flowing down one by one. Falling off. Feiyang hugged her without saying a word. This hug was just to give her warmth, without any other intention. Looking at her slightly relieved face, his fingers trembled slightly.
"If you can't speak, let me help you."
"No, I want to tell him face to face." Ziyi made up her mind and must help Xiaoyu and the others get the little bird back. But her head started to hurt again. Her head always hurt recently, and she had it before. , but it's not that severe. Whenever the pain starts, I will think of some scenes at the beach, especially the scene where she drowned. I always think of it now, and the person who can't see clearly, the eyes are getting worse. It was getting brighter and brighter, and it looked more and more like Leng Chen. Could it be that the person who saved her was Leng Chen? She thought again of the familiar smell on his body and his eyes when she first met him. .If he really saved her when they were children, then they must have known each other when they were children. Then would he remember it? Many pictures suddenly appeared in her mind, including Leng Chen's, Leng Xing's, and Shi Shi's. And Chu Shitian and Yuki's. Her head hurt so much that she couldn't breathe.
Feiyang heard her breathing rapidly and asked anxiously: "Does your head hurt again? Don't think about it."
Zi Yi smiled and said, "Let's go back."
"Are you ready to face them? And your parents?"
Zi Yi hesitated for a moment and took a breath: "It's not an option to hide like this. I can't hide for the rest of my life."
"If you are willing, I can take you away from here." Feiyang said with determination.
"I..." Ziyi looked at Feiyang, who looked at her hopefully. She bit her lower lip and said, "I'm sorry! I can't."
Feiyang's eyes dimmed, but he still smiled softly and said, "Then let's go back."
Ziyi lowered her head: "Feiyang, I'm sorry, I always give you trouble."
Feiyang smiled: "Didn't you agree that I would care about you? Stop saying these kind words. Well, we are eating your favorite seafood today, so go change clothes."
When she heard that she was going to eat seafood, Ziyi's eyes lit up: "Okay, I'll go change clothes."
Feiyang nodded, looked at Ziyi's raised eyebrows, and said in his heart: Ziyi, as long as it can make you happy, I am willing to do anything.
The morning wind was blowing softly, but Ziyi's heart was in confusion. She really wanted to turn back and never come back. However, thinking of where Xiaoyu and the others lived and the conditions of their lives, she had to convince herself to go.
Find Leng Xing.
Standing in front of the Leng Group's building, she took a deep breath. What if, what if Leng Xing didn't see him at all? What if he didn't agree? What if... too many ifs made her hesitate to step out of this place.
step.
"Zi Yi! Is that you?" Jiang Qin looked at the white figure and asked uncertainly.
Ziyi turned around.
"It's really you, great, you're finally back." Jiang Qin ran up and grabbed her shoulders excitedly.
Leng Chen stopped and looked at Jiang Qin and Zi Yi from a distance. His hands were clenched tightly involuntarily, and his heartbeat seemed to stop beating at that moment. Perhaps feeling his gaze, Zi Yi raised her head and went to
The direction of his gaze was over.
Their eyes met, but they felt relatively speechless.
Seeing each other is like not seeing each other.
In the silent gaze, Ziyi felt that he had lost weight, his eyes were so haggard, no longer bright, no longer as bright as stars. His face was a little pale. Heartache filled her heart, but when she thought of the scene that night, she felt
My whole body was so stiff that I couldn't even move my steps. I wanted to speak but couldn't. I could only look at him from a distance and let him slowly disappear from my sight.
Jiang Qin watched Leng Chen turn away and looked at Ziyi in confusion: "Why is he ignoring you?"
Zi Yi smiled weakly: "Can you take me to find Leng Xing?"
"You want to find him? He is not in the office today. But I can call him. You can go to my office and wait for him." Jiang Qin thought for a while and said.
"Well, call him quickly."
Jiang Qin took her to his office, making a phone call as he walked.
Leng Xing was discussing business with an important client. When he saw Jiang Qin's phone number, he knew that he would not call him if there was nothing important, so he answered the call.
"Chairman, Ziyi wants to see you in my office now."
"What? Okay, I'll be right back. Don't let her leave, you know?" Leng Xing said quickly, without waiting for Jiang Qin to answer, he hung up the phone and told the client that he had something to do and had to leave first.
Let's talk about the matter next time. He only worried about Ziyi in his heart, and he couldn't pretend about other things no matter what.
Along the way, he was thinking about what it would be like to see her, and whether she had a good time during this period? Did she get caught in the rain again after leaving that day...
But, what qualifications does he have to care about her? She is the girl that his brother likes. Thinking of this, the fingers holding the steering wheel can't help but tighten. His heart can't help but shrink, but if he doesn't see her, he will feel even more uneasy.
What's more, Jiang Qin said that he came specifically to see him. He stepped on the accelerator hard and told himself: No matter what, this is the last time he will see her.
When he saw Ziyi there intact, the tight string in his heart relaxed. But then he started to get angry. He strode over, grabbed her shoulders tightly, and rushed towards her.
She yelled: "You still know how to come back? Don't you know that the whole world is looking for you? Do you know how worried I am? Do you know that if you run away like this, I will be heartbroken!"
Ziyi had never seen him get angry before, and after being yelled at by him like that, tears were about to burst out of her eyes.
Seeing her tears, he realized that he had been too cruel to her. He could no longer hold back his worry, heartache, or his heart that had been hidden for a long time. He hugged her desperately.
Her eyes were already wet. She could feel her trembling body.
After he felt her real presence in his arms, his heart, which had been highly tense since her disappearance, finally relaxed. He just wanted this moment to stop forever and not face those complicated things.
You don’t have to face those worldly views in your worldly affairs.
Ziyi was in his warm embrace and forgot to push him away for a moment. How long had it been since she had such a warm feeling? In his embrace, she felt so secure and calm.
